hey all. i have a quick question.... for those of you who know that princess is currently on meds and is recovering.....she has been drinking a LOT of water...and she then wees ALOT of course due to the water drinking. is this normal? the other day when i went to clean her cage, i lifted up the food dish and there was a puddle of wee! there are days she wont drink much then days when the bottle is almost empty! and this is a 16 ounce bottle! any ideas?
 
seems pretty ok, I mean if she's definitely drinking and she's eating fine and seems fine, then I guess all is ok! :) :)

Maybe is that the meds have just made her really thristy?

thats what i was thinking...i mean it was a bit of wee! my jaw dropped! but shes eating and theres droppings so i guess.....
 
she is on batryl (is that how its spelled? lol!) but shes seems fine. yesterday she popcorned for the first time in weeks since shes been sick.
 
baytril yes.. that'll help her for sure..

Maybe its just cos of the amount she's drinking and it's just flushing her body out.. cos afterall she's been ill and so the bad stuff is just coming out. But if she's otherwise fine then I don't see any need to worry.

Maybe someone else will have a better idea, but I would say that shes fine
 
Pregnant piggies drink a lot of water - has she ever been with a male? How old is she? She could have gotten pregnant at the pet store, if that's where you got her.

However, I doubt it. Probably just the meds and your feeding her veggies, dry food and hay right?
